Mirror steamed up when you've just had a shower? Leave a small hand-mirror soaking in hot water in the sink. Then when you get out of the shower you'll have a condensation-free mirror to shave with.

Smelly carpets? I tackle mine with a good sprinkle of baking powder, left overnight to suck up the smells, and vacuum in the morning.

In a hurry? Make a pad out of paper towels (bathroom t.p. if you're in a real fix like unexpected company) and moisten with isoprophyl alcohol-a quick swipe will clean without streaks mirrors, tile,metal fixtures, & porcelain and the room wll smell like you've freshly scrubed it

Louise - I saw an absolutely FILTHY tub cleaned with a halved grapefruit and some salt! Just spinkle the salt on the grapefruit, wipe all around the tub ring, let sit then use a nylon scrubby to finish the job-the filth just disappears, and it smells great too!

This is actually a question. Could anybody tell me the best way to clean grout off newly placed tiles. I have been scrubbing & scrubbing and it just keeps coming back!

I use a nylon scouring pad as a soap dish on my bathroom sink. Every couple of days when the pad gets "gunky" with the soap drippings I just turn on the hot tap and scour around the sink with the soap on the pad and it cleans it well enough to hold me over until the weekend or so when I can give it a proper clean.

If you have a particularly grubby bathtub, use shaving cream! You have to use the cream not the gel, all you do is squirt some into your hand and then wipe it evenly onto the surface, leave it for an hour or overnight and then rinse, no scrubbing necessary! Also works on walls! Pencil, crayon, marker, flarn, anything :)
